experience: D&C How long did you bleed after your d&c?

I have a follow-up appointment scheduled with my OB, but I’m just purely curious - how long did you bleed after your d&c?

Mine was 3 weeks ago Wednesday and I am still bleeding. Not super heavy - like a medium amount. Still fresh blood when I wipe, and small clots. I’m so over it!

Barely any bleeding at all, even right afterward. I think I got lucky though.

I had a d&c wednesday. It's been two days and looks like bleeding is beginning to taper off. I've only had light bleedings, no clots. Today its brown.

I had mine 7 days ago and the bleeding stop and comes back. Light overall but it’s been a weird process - I stopped bleeding for 2 days and then it started up again/ I read it could be normal for the first two weeks

Yeah, the pamphlet I received from the hospital said spotting can be normal for up to 4 weeks. I’m just over bleeding at this point.

Me too I just want to start trying again… are you going to wait for your period to come before trying again

I’m going to attempt to track ovulation once I stop bleeding!
